Castleford Tigers (24) 34

T : Paddy Flynn 2, Denny Solomona 2, Ben Crooks 2
G : Luke Gale 5

Denny Solomona scored two tries to set a new Super League record as Castleford Tigers held off a late Catalans Dragons fightback to win 34-28 in Perpignan.

Solomona levelled and then broke Lesley Vainikolo's 12-year record in the space of three first-half minutes to take his tally for the season to 37. 

Luke Gale played a starring role for the visitors as he created all but one of the Tigers' tries and added five conversions from six attempts.

The win moves Castleford to within a point of fifth-placed Catalans with one game remaining in the Super 8s. 

The defeat consigned Catalans to their fourth in the Super 8s and compounded a miserable second half to the season for the Dragons.
